Ty Montgomery wouldn’t talk about his decision to take a kickoff out of end zone with 2:05 remaining Sunday. He left the locker room without commenting Marwin Evans Jersey , via multiple reports.Montgomery, though, disobeyed coaches’ orders in not taking a knee.“The plan was to stay in [the end zone] and give the ball to Aaron Rodgers,” Packers coach Mike McCarthy said, via video from the team website.Montgomery took the kickoff 2 yards deep and ran it out, reaching the Green Bay 20 before Ramik Wilson forced Montgomery to fumble with Wilson recovering the fumble. Rodgers never saw the ball again as the Rams picked up a first down and ran out the clock on a 29-27 victory.If Montgomery had taken the touchback Nick Perry Jersey White , Rodgers would have had the ball at his own 25-yard line, with 2:05 to play and a timeout. Who’s betting against Rodgers?“Obviously the plan there is to stay in the end zone,” McCarthy said. “Two minute. We actually talked about it as a team. . . .But that’s what those games come down to. There are decisions. Ty is in that decision situation. I’m sure Ty was trying to make a play. I don’t know exactly how deep he was, if he was close, but I think we all realize that with the management of the clock and where we wanted to be there — I wanted to be north of two minutes with the one timeout — we want to put the ball in Aaron’s hands. You also trust your players. Tough decisions. Close decisions. I think Ty was just trying to make a play.”Montgomery, who had three kickoff returns for 68 yards Sunday Mason Crosby Jersey White , has 35 career returns for a 22.7 yards average. He has no return touchdowns with a career long of 46 yards. The Green Bay Packers trail the Chicago Bears 14-3 at halftime, and the slim postseason hopes for this team are about to flatline. The Packers continue to struggle on third downs, going 3-for-7 in the first half, and they have been stuck with terrible field position most of the afternoon at Soldier Field. That, combined with an early injury to running back Aaron Jones and a depleted defense, has led to a two-possession deficit at the break.The Bears struck first Nick Perry Jersey , as Jordan Howard split the Packers’ defense up the middle for a touchdown run. The Packers pulled within 7-3 with a Mason Crosby field goal, but the Bears put up another score late in the second quarter as Tarik Cohen found the pylon. A late Hail Mary attempt from Aaron Rodgers hit Davante Adams in the hands, but he could not haul in the football and it fell incomplete. The Packers will receive to start the third quarter.Rodgers is 9-of-14 passing for 92 yards, while Jamaal Williams leads the team in both rushing and receiving. He has six carries for 29 yards plus a pair of receptions for 34 yards.If the Packers do lose this game, they would need the Minnesota Vikings to lose to the Miami Dolphins, plus a loss by either Philadelphia or Washington Jaire Alexander Jersey , in order to stay mathematically alive for the postseason. However, Minnesota leads Miami 21-10 at the half of that game.Join us in the comments for the remainder of today’s game.Game Updates from APC StaffA Twitter List by acmepackingco Game Updates from Packers MediaA Twitter List by TexWestern
